This book was quite interesting. I could say it was by far more different from every other werewolf book I’ve ever read.

It about this girl who was coming home after breaking up with her boyfriend at a date. She missed the bus and was waiting for another when she heard and saw a girl shaking in a corner. She went to help the girl but the girl changed into a werewolf and started to attack her. Acting on instinct she reach for a steal pipe and swung it to the wolf’s head and it turned into the girl again. Only now she was dead. Thats when she meets the hero of the book who inform her that she is a werewolf hunter and the girl was a werewolf.

Apart form all of that she finds herself drawn to him and he to her. She later finds out that not only is he half werewolf half hunter but she is also. And there is a war with the werewolves who don’t want any such peace between werewolf and hunter and The Cause. The Cause was a set of both werewolves and hunters who come together to form a peace among their kind.

At times, I found this book to be frustrated for the heroine. I understand that she has no idea about the life she was suppose to live being a hunter and all but I felt if she was told things nothing bad would’ve happen. I feel she would’ve been more prepared.

Her mother made me want to drive her head into a wall. Everyone only wanted to protect her but no one really teaches her how to protect herself. Most of the book she was fighting on purely instinct. It was beginning to piss me off.

I hate how it ended to me it should’ve been a stand alone book and didn’t need the drag along of a series. I don’t think I will be reading the rest of the series. It wasn’t as likable as I wanted it to be.

This book was short and an easy read. I enjoyed that story behind it and all the past secrets which comes to light at the ending.

The book is basically about rich girl and one of their housekeeper’s illegitimate son. The novel is a fast forward 10 years after Kane (housekeepeer’s son) was kicked out the Mercer’s house escorted by the police for destroying the garden which cost a fortune. He was never heard of after till now.

Kane is back for revenge from the Mercer family now that he is a billionaire. The only one he didn’t want to get caught in the crossfire is Bryony. But she was in the middle of it all and the only way he could keep her safe is to make her marry him and he wasn’t taking no for an answer. He even resort to blackmailing her. Although at that time she didn’t know it was for her own safety.

Bryony just felt hate towards Kane although she knew deep down she had feelings towards him. After the book progresses and past secrets are revealed Bryony don’t understands why Kane would help her and her family out after the way he was treated all those years ago.

I must say Kane has a heart. Although he was after revenge I think he helped the Mercer more than hurt them. Yes he tarnished the Mercer’s pride but the things he did for them far out weight that. If I Kane and I was going after revenge at Bryony’s father for what he did I would’ve done more worst things to him.

Bryony’s father drew the short straw. Lucky bastard. He didn’t deserve Bryony’s mother and her faithfulness. I hate men who think everyone else is beneath them. For that I couldn’t blame Bryony for the way she was. She was brought up with that instilled in her.

The book was a good read and if you’re look for a quick romance with a little mystery in it then this is definitely the book to read.

I really enjoyed this book but hated the fact that the author decided to drop this trilogy. She is supposedly writing a novella to complete this series but I’m not going to be holding my breath on that.

The book is basically about this girl who was walking home with her friend after a night of drinking away the pain from her cheating ex boyfriend and ends up being attacked. She woke up in a strange house with this guy asking her what she was and then informing her that she is now a Vârcolac (a nightmarish vampire-werewolf hybrid.) What make matters worst is that fact that she is the only girl ever of her kind leaving her life in forever in danger.﻿

The guy she’s with along with his brothers and father is a shifter. They decided to protect her but that all came crashing down when betrayal steps in.

I like stories with the love-hate thing going on, it makes when then hero and heroine decides to finally get together more intense. Nathan was an ass at the beginning I wouldn’t have given a crap about him if he treated me the way he did Alex at the beginning.

I really felt for Nathan’s little brother. He fell for Alex and she didn’t notice till the ending. Like I noticed he liked her when they were cleaning out the horse stables together. I guess you don’t realize these thing till it’s too late. I hated what happened to him after. I think Samantha give his character an unfair role to play.

I really hated the last quarter of the book. Nathan became a more bigger dick towards Alex and I give her all right to leave his ass. But at the same time I felt a slight bad for Nathan. He was just trying to recover from his lost.

Amm the second part of the trilogy is called Original Sins and I honestly didn’t read it. I kind of skim through it. Since the blurb talk about her with some other guy it threw me off. That and the fact that there wasn’t another book to complete the series. Like why would I read it if there was no complete ending?

Anyways turns out this guy she met was one of the original Vârcolac who wasn’t all that bad. He actually helped her out and fell in love with her. But she eventually went back to Nathan like two thirds down in the book.

All of that aside, I think if the trilogy was complete I would’ve given it the praise it might’ve deserved. But I’m going to be leaving this review high and dry the same way the author did the trilogy.

This book was not a bad read. It was a typical Romeo and Juliet story but it changes at the ending.

It’s basically about two mafia families who always hated each other. You have Devon Andre from one family and Leighton Moore from another. Devon hated the Moore family with vengeance because he grew up knowing that Leighton’s father killed his entire family. Leighton was caught sneaking around during a meeting with Devon and a traitor from her family. She was kidnapped by Devon and from there the story picks up. Obviously they fall in love at the ending.

In parts of the story it was unbelievable, like that would never happen if it was real life. Ammm it was an okay read but I felt that it wasn’t really “mafiay”. It should’ve had more fighting and violence. I guess maybe I read too much mafia books with violence in it that I find myself comparing them to this book.

Yeahh ammm thats all I have to say about this book. It wasn’t to my liken soo I really don’t have much to say in this review.

This was an easy and fast read. I like that it was a simple and to the point. But to me the author could’ve developed the plot more.

So it’s basically about two high school sweetheart who reconnect at their 10 year high school reunion. Katrina is stuck as a server in order to pay the bills and just want to get out a little. Damon is a billionaire who just found out that he has lung cancer and reflects on all his past mistakes especially leaving Katrina behind.

Damon realizes that his life is a lonely one and he has no wife nor child to pass on his legacy to. When he meets Katrina after all these years he develops a plan to marry her and have her bare him a child. Katrina feels as if she never fell out of love with Damon and after learning about his cancer she agrees with his plan.

This book was very predictable and it had no twist to it. I was really looking forward for some sort of up and down to happen but it never did. But all in all it was a good read.

Damon, I spent years looking for the one person I was meant to spend my life with, but he never showed up. I realized when we reconnected at the reunion that the reason he never showed up was because I’d already had him – he’d been you all along.

Holy mother of hail mary. Let me just take this moment to catch my breath……..

Hats off to J. J. McAvoy you are now a goddess to me. I shall worshipp the pages of every book from now on that you write on. I shall praise every deity for having you on earth.

When I say I really enjoyed this series it is an understatement of the year. I started reading the first book last year and was hooked from the very first page. I was barely holding on when I finished the first book and when the second book came out I felt like the days was taking forever to pass for the third. The cliffhanger in the second book made it so unbearable for the third book. March 19th took too long. If I could’ve bought this series for everyone to read I would’ve.

This book is the ultimate mafia romance book. It was bloody and ruthless but at the same time it still had romance.

﻿

﻿ I fell in love with Melody Giovanni from the very first book. She would’ve been my role model if I lived life like they do. Liam Callahan stole my heart from the very first chapter. I like that he is all bad assery but when the day comes to an end he cared about love and family. I thought Melody was a bitch but then after reading the series I get that it was not her fault but the way she was brought up.

There is not another person out there that complements each other than they do. This is the perfect arranged marriage ever. I think if Melody was like Olivia or Carolina, Liam could not have control the mafia and I totally called it about Olivia (you have to read to find out).

This book is a must read. You’ll fall in love with each and every page.

The Callahan Family Rule #50

We are Callahans, if anyone ever disrespects us, don’t just end them, end everything they have ever cared about both past and present. Make them the example as to what happens when you fuck with the wrong family.

I was not going to blog about this book because it annoyed me that much but my sister persuade me into doing this. Thats how much I really didn’t like this book.

Hate is such a strong word to use. So I didn’t really hate it as opposed to how much the heroine in this book annoyed the shit out of me. I wanted to slip into the pages of the book and strangle her. She made me so frustrated 65% of the time whilse reading.

As for the alpha the other 35% of this book he annoyed the living day light out of me. This book was one big keeping secrets, kissing and running away, hiding, not listening, not understanding and whole lot of irritated shit. Just doing this blog and remembering what I read is getting me frustrated.

Don’t get me wrong it was probably a really good book but it was just not my cup of tea. I hate books where people don’t communicate with each other and always face danger head on without waiting for others. It’s like watching a scary movie where one idot always decided that splitting up is the best thing.

The part that really get to my nerves was at the ending when Charolette went into the farm house looking for her friend and the guy (forgot his name) told her that whomever is in there is not her friend but a wolf, she was so determined to play hero that she went in. Like he is a werewolf and he was afraid to go by himself why the hell can’t you wait for the rest of the pack? It’s either she’s dead already or turned into a werewolf aint nothing you could do just wait your ass right were you at till the pack finds you.

There is another book that continues this series which I don’t think I would read. Sorry but really didn’t like it at all.

Book 1: The Mayfair Moon Book 2: Kindred ﻿ Book 3: The Ballad of Aramei

What a wonderful read. Words cannot descibe how much I fell in love with this book whilst reading it.

One major reason why I was head over heels with this trilogy is because it was soooooo different form evey other werewolf books I’ve ever read. The werewolves were not like huge dogs that you would think (like how Taylor/Jacob would turn into in Twilight). From the description they were like those horror movies werewolf. Like this picture below..

Doesn’t paint a pretty picture for a romance novel does it? Well it actually did. I would admit though the book was kinda slow at the beginning of each book but then they pick off like at the middle making you not want to put the book down to miss the ending.

It had everything a romance/werewolf book would have combine. Your had the drama, jealousy, over-protectiveness, bossy, kill-her-you-die hype thing going on.

I loved that in the second book both Isaac and Adria were opened to each other and didn’t keep anything to themselves. Although because of the bonding it would be difficult to keep anything apart they still kept their minds open to one another.

Adria is very strong. I think if I was ever in her shoes and all of this was real I would’ve sign myself in a mental institution from the very beginning. From such a horrible childhood to werewolves I don’t think I could’ve keep a strong mental mind. So hats off for her.

I hated Issac’s father with every bone in my body. Men like him does not deserve to have that many children. I don’t understant how he can love Aramei that much and still have children with other mates. I also couldn’t understand why he kept her around so long eventhough she was in such vegetative state. I get that he love her that much but still no one deserves to live two hundred and something years like that.

This was a really good read. I enjoyed it and it had a lot of mysterious plots happening. It wasn’t boring nor predictable. This book was really “romancy”.

This book series was basically about this girl name Bloom who was abandoned by her mother from the day she was born and was raised by her father who never really got over her mother. Her father died leaving Bloom in depression since she had no other family member.

This is when she met Pike who she thought was just a wolf who was caught in a trap set by her father before he died. Turns out Pike was her mate and she was also a werewolf. The story then picks up from there.

What I didn’t like about this book was the fact that the characters fall so fast from their mate. Like she find out that Pike was her mate today then the next week she was ready to move 9 hours away from the only life she knew to live with the guy she hardly know. Same with her mother who was a werewolf and fell in love with her dad, lived together for couple years (married) and the same day she gave birth to their daughter she finds her mate and decided the pull towards each other was enough to give up her just born child and the man who she married.

Aside from that this was a really good book series. Parts was very funny. I like her friend Bonnie and her “kick assenss” in the last book. I was really hoping that this book was a trilogy but liked the way it ended.

Holly mother of all werewolf romance books. This was a fantastic read.

This four series book tells the story of a girl whose parents were on the run from another werewolf pact their entire lives and failed to mentioned to her that she was a werewolf. She was sent to live with her grandmother during her senior year of high school were she eventually discovers the truth about her parents and who she really is. She met her mate who is also the Alpha and the story takes off from there.

I really enjoyed this series it had a little bit of everything that you would expect from a werewolf romance book. I like the fact that is wasn’t too muh of like Twilight werewolf thig going on. I’m super happy it was only about werewolves and no other paranormal beings.

What made me like it even more was that it wasn’t bias on who the alpha should be. Like I would think that the responsibility of apha would be that of the guy only but I was happy to know that the girl was also considered an alpha. I did not like that they were not as matured as I thought they would be for alphas but I guess they tried as much as they could being as they had their childhood was ripped from them.

I really loved the sense of humor that Caede’s brother had. He made the book such fun to read. He put live and happiness in most of the characters and when in time of sadness he made jokes to distract the pact from the matter at hand.

I really enjoyed this book and if I was the kind of person to re read a book this would definitely be one on the list of re reads.
